What did Kompany say ahead of the German Super Cup against Borussia?

Bayern Munich head coach Vincent Kompany shared his thoughts on the upcoming high-profile German Super Cup clash with old rivals Borussia Dortmund. In an interview with the club’s official website, the Belgian coach stressed that his team would fight for every trophy and that the match in Dortmund would be a serious test.

“We want to win every trophy”: Kompany’s statement

Vincent Kompany discussed the importance of the competition and the final at the opponent’s stadium, saying:

“I don’t rank trophies by importance. To be honest, we want to win them all. Tomorrow, we have a real final ahead of us.

I am not concerned that the German Super Cup will be played away from home—that is also a distinctive tradition in Germany, with the reigning champion playing away. Winning the trophy in Dortmund would be fantastic. Perhaps a 50/50 split between the supporters in the stands would be more fitting for the spirit of a final, but travelling to Dortmund and bringing the cup home would be very satisfying. However, it will be a difficult task—Borussia have great quality and strength. It is hard to find a more serious opponent than them in the Bundesliga,” Vincent Kompany.
